James 'JD' Allen Dahl

Aug 27, 1956 — Sep 9, 2026

Prescott

Jim “JD” Dahl, 70, of Prescott, Wisconsin, passed away peacefully on September 9, 2026, surrounded by his loving family. Born August 27, 1956, in Red Wing, Minnesota, to Allen Dahl and Minnie Davidsavor (Kolve).

JD was a hardworking man with a big heart. At 16, he proudly enlisted in the Navy and served his country for four years. He loved farming, the outdoors, and especially his Harley-Davidson motorcycles. He enjoyed building, working on, and riding them, finding freedom on the open road.

JD married the love of his life, Gail, on November 19, 1994. Together they shared a life filled with love, family, laughter, and memories.

He will be deeply missed by his wife, Gail; children Lucas (Kellie) Dahl, Robert Dullum, Jamie (Jore) Faucett, and Sara (Divere) Dullum; sisters Lynda and Tammy; grandchildren Ethan (Courtney), Evan, Emilee, Baylee, Jace, Makena, Arie, Isabel, Scarlett, Junior, and Amira; five great-grandchildren; and many family members and friends.

One of JD’s most treasured bonds was with his grandson, Junior. From the day Junior was born, JD was there to love, guide, and be the Papa he could always count on.

We picture JD riding free once again, his big beard blowing in the wind, Harley beneath him, and the open road ahead. Ride free, JD. Until we meet again. You will be loved, remembered, and missed always.
